GDC08: Gameloft reveals first downloadable iPhone game


by Stuart Dredge



Alright, we admit it: we could be going out on a limb here. But during Gameloft boss Michel Guillemot's keynote GDC Mobile speech today, the iPhone featured in several of his slides.

And yes, the image he used showed a game running on the device. Now, it was probably a mock-up � perhaps Gameloft simply slapped an existing screenshot onto the iPhone.

Or perhaps it didn't. Have a look: it looks like one of the NiGHTS games or perhaps Pop Superstar with tarted up graphics, but we can't be sure.

What we do know is that Apple hasn't yet announced its plans for official iPhone downloadable games. But judging by its work with iPod games already, Gameloft is likely to be one of the launch partners.

So, without wishing to jump the gun, FIRST IPHONE GAME! LOOK!
